A car is 2.0 km west of a traffic light at t = 0 and 5.0 km east of the light at t = 6.0 min. Assume the origin of the coordinat

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

(a) Position Vectors V₁= -2î km, V₂=5î km

(b) Displacement Δx=7 km

Explanation:

Given data

Distance=2 km west at t=0

Distance=5 km east at t=6 min

Positive x is the east direction

To find

(a)Car position vector at given times

(b)Displacement between 0 to 6.0 min

Solution

For Part (a) car position vector at given times

At t=0 the distance=2 km west so conclude that x₁=-2 because it is in negative side So vector V₁

V₁= -2î km

At t=6.0 the distance=5 km east so conclude that x₂=5 because it is in positive side So vector V₂

V₂=5î km

For (b) displacement between 0 to 6.0 min

According to following mathematical law we can conclude that

Δx=x₂-x₁

Δx=5-(-2)km

Δx=7 km

A father racing his son has half the kinetic energy of the son, who has half the mass of the father.The father speeds up by 1.0

Helga [31]

Answer:

(a) $v_f=2.414\ m.s^{-1}$

(b) $v_s=4.828\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Let:

mass of father be, $m_f$

mass of son be, $m_s=\frac{m_f}{2}$

speed of son be, $v_s$

initial speed of father be, $v_f$

After speeding up, speed of father is $v_f+1$

<u>We know Kinetic Energy is given as</u>

$KE=\frac{1}{2} m.v^2$ .....................................(1)

where:

m = mass

v = velocity

Hence, according to the initial condition the father is having kinetic energy half the kinetic energy of the son.

$KE_s=2.KE_f$

$\frac{1}{2} m_s.v_s^2=2\times \frac{1}{2} m_f.v_f^2$

$(\frac{m_f}{2})\times v_s^2=2\times m_f\times v_f^2$

$v_s=2v_f$ .................................................(2)

According to the final condition:

$\frac{1}{2} m_s.v_s^2= \frac{1}{2} m_f.(v_f+1)^2$

$(\frac{m_f}{2})\times v_s^2=m_f.(v_f+1)^2$

$v_s^2=2(v_f+1)^2$

$v_s=\sqrt{2}(v_f+1)$ .....................................................(3)

(a)

From eq. 2 & 3

$2v_f=\sqrt{2}(v_f+1)$

$\sqrt{2}\ v_f=(v_f+1)$

$v_f(\sqrt{2}-1)=1$

$v_f=\frac{1}{(\sqrt{2}-1)}$

$v_f=2.414\ m.s^{-1}$

(b)

<em>putting the above value in eq. (2)</em>

$v_s=4.828\ m.s^{-1}$

Extrusive Igneous rock has ___________ grain size.<br> I need help on this one

MrRissso [65]

Explanation:

Extrusive rocks may have a few grains that are large enough to see, but most of them will be too small to see individual minerals. ... The individual mineral grains are almost too small to see. Some extrusive rocks cool so quickly that they do not form any grains. Instead, they form a natural glass.
